Bermuda suspended all Russian jets on the island — but flight trackers show some delisted planes are still flying anyway

Russian jets were temporarily suspended from the island's airworthiness system. Dozens of delisted planes were still flying the next day, according to FlightRadar 24.

Bernews reported that there are over 700 Russian-operated planes in the island. Around 50 people were seen flying over Russia and Kazakhstan. Flightradar 24 shared a picture on Sunday.

International sanctions on the aviation sector made it impossible to approve Russian aircrafts as airworthy.

The BCAA said in a statement that it had temporarily suspended all certificates of airworthiness of those aircraft that were operating under the article 83bis Agreement between the Russian Federation and the island of Bermuda. Insider requested additional comment from BCAA, but they did not reply immediately.

The UK has been trying to enforce sanctions against Russia in overseas territories such as the British Virgin Islands.

The UK government is working closely with the overseas territories to make sure that Putin's people have nowhere to hide, but repossessing planes leased to Russian airlines has proven a legal nightmare.
